After continuous sold events in 2024 and January this year, we're back again for another Afternoon of Bowie. This time we're marking the 50th anniversary of Young Americans (released 7th march 1975) by playing every track from the classic album at some point during the afternoon but we'll still be playing loads from other albums and eras. So join us for a dance, grab some food, have a drink or just lounge back and enjoy the work of Mr David Jones. We start slow with the tracks you don't often hear then build to an all out last 1 hr 45m-ish of the hits where everyone is up and dancing! You can pop on the tube and still be home in time to enjoy your Sunday evening! With Bowie visuals and a few sing-alongs, it's a nice way to spend a Sunday and get ready for the working week. Feeling Gloomy has been running Bowie parties for around 19 years now and appeared with them at the likes of Isle of Wight, Standon Calling and Camp Bestival. We know our onions as they say.

Le Tigre special. This year sees the 20th anniversary of Le Tigre's amazing self-titled debut album, which came out in October 1999. As we always have our annual B&S special in October, we've decided to throw the party a few months early and have a Le Tigre special in June. We'll be playing every song from "Le Tigre" over the course of the evening, alongside our usual mix of indie pop and soul. Come and dance to "Deceptacon", "Hot Topic", "My My Metrocard", "Let's Run", and loads more!

Our Christmas Party! At long, long last, we can meet up once again in The Phoenix and dance to indie pop, northern soul, Motown, 60s girl groups and more. To ease our way back into the life we used to know, we'll be capping capacity for this to ensure that everyone has lots of space and feels comfortable. Tickets will be limited so please snap one up while you can.

We will ask you to provide proof of a double vaccination (via the NHS app or by bringing your card or a print out), a negative lateral flow test (via the app or a print out, which you can get from here: https://www.gov.uk/report-covid19-result), or proof of having had Covid in the last 3 months (via the app). We're limiting the capacity for the first few nights to make sure everyone has lots of room. Some people will have been out in the last few weeks and will feel comfortable with being in a club again. For others - myself included - this will be the first month they've been out dancing. So please be respectful of everyone's personal space and remember that we'll all be at different stages of returning to the life we used to know. It's no longer a legal requirement to wear a mask. If you'd like to wear a mask, you're welcome to. If not, that's fine too. Staff will be wearing a mask for your safety. We'll have the air con units on and will take measures to increase natural ventilation. Thank you for your understanding and for helping us do everything we can to keep everyone safe.

Its unpretentious and welcoming nature, often fuelled with everything from Belle & Sebastian and Orange Juice to Tamla Motown and Dusty Springfield, swipes away any negative connotations our capital has for being a cold, brutal and rather heartless place.' - Music OMH We play: Belle & Sebastian Dusty Springfield The Magnetic Fields Love Orange Juice The Ronettes Ramones The Supremes Aztec Camera Beach Boys Buzzcocks The Cure The Temptations Velvet Underground Felt The Shangri-Las R.E.M.

We've held the HDIF Children's disco at the End Of The Road festival since 2011, and they've been lots and lots of fun. We play our usual mixture of indie pop and soul, and the discos are a wonderful opportunity for kids to bop around to The Smiths, Belle & Sebastian, Allo Darlin', The Ramones and more, and for their parents to bop along with them. It can often be hard to get out to club nights once you become a parent, so these discos are as much a chance for the parents to go out dancing as they are for the kids. We also want to provide an alternative to the many rave-themed kids discos that are on offer in London. If you'd rather dance to your favourite indie pop and Motown songs with your children, then we're the disco for you! Music will be played at a reasonable level. We'll make sure that the songs aren't played too loud, but if you're worried about volume please do bring along ear defenders for your kids. Everyone is welcome at our kids discos - children, parents and family friends - but we follow similar rules to Coram's Fields - so no admission for adults unless they are accompanied by a child. About The Phoenix: The venue is a wonderful basement bar with a wooden dancefloor. Entrance is via a short flight of stairs. It's three minutes walk from Oxford Circus tube station. We play: The Smiths The Supremes Belle & Sebastian Dusty Springfield The Magnetic Fields Love Orange Juice The Ronettes Aztec Camera Beach Boys The Temptations Velvet Underground Felt The Shangri-Las Allo Darlin' Otis Redding The Field Mice Dexys Midnight Runners Camera Obscura The Four Tops The Go-Betweens Tammi Terrell Jens Lekman Jonathan Richman Le Tigre Pat Powdrill The Sea Urchins Sleater-Kinney Os Mutantes Neutral Milk Hotel The Left Banke The Associates Martha Reeves & The Vandellas "Popular club night How Does It Feel to Be Loved host their first London kids disco at The Phoenix, W1. Fresh off the fields of End of the Road Festival, HDIF Children's Disco provides a laid-back session for fans of indie and classic soul. Expect anything from The Smiths to Otis Redding" - Babes About Town (Jan 2018) "How Does It Feel To Be Loved? is running its third child-friendly disco on March 25th. This alternative to rave-themed discos such as BFLF and Rave-A-Roo offers indie kids and their tinies a chance to bop around to The Smiths and The Ramones." - Bablands (Feb 2018) "If you don't want to hear children's music at a children's disco there is an alternative. How Does It Feel to Be Loved? is an unashamedly indie club night Belle and Sebastian, The Smiths and Pixies are some of its staples, although pop and soul make an appearance too that puts on monthly Sunday afternoon shindigs for families. The same music policy applies, with the tunes played at a kiddie-friendly level. Give the youngsters a dose of musical history." - Time Out (April 2018) "Introduce your teeny-tiny boppers to some proper tunes at the How Does It Feel Children's Disco. From indie darlings like Belle & Sebastian, to the psychedelic soul of The Temptations played at a kid-friendly level, it'll be music to their (and your) ears." - Londonist (April 2018) Parent reviews of the HDIF Children's Disco
